There could be many reasons why the 'make build' command works in the terminal but not when executed through Ansible. Some possible reasons include:

  1. Path: The build command may not be on the PATH used by Ansible by default. Ensure the path to the build command is correctly configured in the Ansible task.

  2. User permission: The user running the Ansible command may not have permission to access or execute the build command. Check the permission of the user on the system where Ansible is running.

  3. Environment variables: The build command may require certain environment variables to be set, which may not be set by Ansible. Ensure that Ansible sets the necessary environment variables before executing the build command.

  4. Dependencies: The build command may have dependencies that are not installed on the system where Ansible is running. Check that all dependencies are installed and available.

  5. Modules: The 'make build' command may rely on specific modules or libraries that are not installed on the system. Ensure that all required modules or libraries are installed, either manually or by using a package manager or Ansible itself.

  6. Shell: The 'make build' command may rely on a specific type of shell or interpreter, which may not be the default shell used by Ansible. Ensure Ansible is configured to use the correct shell or interpreter for the build command.
